Tank Drive Mecanum

[MotorHead]

Not sure why you want to do it this way.

Bottom line is if you want to gain the maneuverability of mecanum wheels and use the built libraries of LabView, you must pass the holonomic vi a vector (magnitude and direction) plus a rotation signal representing what you want the robot to do. This years holonomic vi also allows you to work in cartesian coordinates as well.

However you generate those signals from the joysticks is up to you. The easiest way is to take the x and y signal from the joystick and pass it to the holonomic vi. If that doesn't work for you, you would be on your own for coding the correct signals to the drive system with mecanum wheels....definitely not for the faint of heart at this point in the game.

Post some sample code of what you are trying to do.
